The Houston Rockets have sent Clint Capela back to the D-League.

Capela will re-join the Rio Grande Valley Vipers as he continues to rack up frequent flier points on the D-League Express. While the 20-year-old has promise, he shouldn't be on any fantasy rosters. Feb 19 - 10:18 AM

Clint Capela has been re-assigned to the Rio Grande Valley Vipers of the D-League.

Capela has played just 18 minutes for the Rockets this season, so this move comes as no surprise as the team tries to get him some consistent minutes. While the 20-year-old has plenty of talent, he can be forgotten about in standard fantasy leagues. Jan 29 - 10:24 AM

The Houston Rockets have recalled Clint Capela from the NBA D-League on Sunday.

He averaged 14.9 points, 8.7 rebounds and 2.8 blocks in 18 games in the D-League, but he has a lot of work to do in order to get into a crowded Houston rotation. Capela is not on the fantasy radar in most leagues. Jan 25 - 12:24 PM

James Harden will be suspended for Tuesday's game against the Hawks for kicking LeBron James in the groin on Sunday.

We'll finally get to see just how valuable Harden really is. He's having one of the best seasons for stats in recent memory, so his fantasy owners should still start him with three games. With Harden out, there should be many more minutes for Corey Brewer and coach Kevin McHale may kick the tires on K.J. McDaniels. The violation is attached in the link below.

Dwight Howard (knee) has not yet progressed to on-court activities, and he is still limited to swimming, weight lifting and running on a weight-controlled treadmill.

He has been sidelined since Jan. 25 due to his ailing knee, and this report suggests that he still has a long way to go in his recovery. He is scheduled to have several MRI's in the coming week, so we should be able to provide an additional update on his timetable soon. With fantasy playoffs just around the corner, Howard's owners may need to evaluate their options. Terrence Jones has been on fire for the Rockets, and he will continue to be the primary beneficiary for the foreseeable future. Donatas Motiejunas and Josh Smith are locked into larger roles as well.
